But 3PO is right there!
You know it would’ve been funny if Hot Toys pulled a classic move and didn’t even make AOTC 3PO. If all we had was just his head.
Glad that isn’t the case.
That’s a really nice classy base, where is it from or did you make it?

R2 is a very underrated hot toys figure. It is one of my favorite releases and just looks like a prop. Cannot wait for C3po.
This R2 can do almost everything we see in the films, it’s pretty amazing, very well designed
agreed! After going through multiple Sideshow R2D2s, I couldn't be happier with this HT version. The only gripe I have is the batteries really don't last long at all. They really should've put a USB port at the back in one of the unused panels.

How else do you sideline one of the greatest heroes in Star Wars history to make way for your inferior (sorry BB-8, we cool but it’s true) replacement?
Thanks JJ.

Coco, how can you be so good at both posing and photography!? It's amazing!
I’m blushing. Thank you for that.

If mine ships from SS this week I get it following day. Hope he ships in next 2 days.
Nearly perfect representation of AOTC 3PO but I hate that the only neutral hands they included are in a weird, karate chop kind of sculpt. Paint apps are absolutely awesome.

Mine has arrived and I will pick up this weekend. My first 1/6 since Jango Fett!

So Sideshow is definitely doing the waitlist to sell more figures. I jumped on waitlist for this last night for kicks and got an opportunity to buy today… this is like the 3rd time it’s happened.

That's exactly what S.H. Figuarts did! They made the Geonosis droid with a Threepio head but never released a Threepio. They even showed a prototype at one of their shows but never put it up for pre-order. I wanted it so badBut 3PO is right there!
